If You Want Me Like That (Varchie) {Completed}

*chapter 5*

Author's note: this is all in Veronica's p.o.v

Veronica's p.o.v
I awake from my slumber, get out of bed, and go to eat breakfast. I finish cooking my food and sit down. I got a call from Archie.

A: Hey baby!
V: Hey.
A: How's it going?
V: good.
A: Great!
V: not that I'm complaining Archie but why did you call me Arch?
A: I was gonna ask if you wanna go on a date a Pop's at 8?
V: Let me check my schedule.
A: alright love .
V: I have a few things to do today.
A: oh..
V: but I'll clear them for you Archiekins.
A: YAY! Pick you up at 8:00.
V: Alright silly.
A: Bye Ronnie.
V: Bye.

I hang up and continue to eat my breakfast. I decide that I want to go to Betty's house for a while and talk about Archie and I. Since I don't have to wait till 7:00 to get ready for our date. I finish my breakfast and do my morning routine.

*At Betty's*

I knock on the door and Alice answers and said Betty is upstairs. I run upstairs and walk to Betty's room open then shut the door.
"What the hell V I'm getting dressed. Learn to knock." Betty says.
"B, I need to talk to you, it's about Archie." I say.
"What's wrong?" She asks full of concern.
"So you know how before Archie moved here, I was a fuckgirl?" I ask.
"Damn straight" she says.
"When I saw Archie, I knew he was new, because I obviously never seen him before. But I tried changing just for him." She starts to say.
"Good.." She says.
"No not good, I did like him a lot at first. I asked him out and everything. But he said no, that we should wait a while." She continues but didn't finish.
"YOU ASKED ARCHIE OUT AND HE SAID NO!?" She says.
"But did he say why he said no?" She asks.
"Yeah, I am about to get to that. I started to cry and he held me. He apologised. I left and cried again while I was leaving his house. I live right next to him so it wasn't a long walk. When I got in my room he texted me about why he said no and he apologised again." I said.
"Okay, why did he say no?" She asks questionably.
"He said no because of me being a fuckgirl, Betty, and i tried to change. I really did. I texted him that I wanted an actual relationship with him and that'll fight for him for as long as it takes. I then texted him that I'm maybe..."
"MAYBE WHAT!" She asks as a yell only because she was inpatient.
"I said that I think I was falling in love with him." I say looking down at the ground.
"You said what!" She exclaims.
"Yeah. But now that we already had sex I don't feel like I am." I say in disappointment.
" You and him already had sex? So you guys are together?
and not trying to be rude, don't hate me or hit me for this, but that is classic Veronica. Always wanting a guy and then not liking them." She says cautiously like she was scared of what I would do. But honestly she's right and I know she's right.
"Betty, I know you're right, you know you're right, hell even the whole school knows you're right but I just don't like to admit it." I say.
"Yeah, so what are you gonna do? Break up with him? Just play it off and cheat on him?" She asks.
"I don't know Betty. I really don't know. I am trying to change Betty just for him. But it's so hard. I really like him, but the heart wants what it wants." I say.
"Yeah." She says. I hug her tightly and she asks me a question.
"Why me Veronica, why did you come to me to talk to about Archie with? Why not Cheryl?" She asks.
"Because I knew that if I went to Cheryl she would two things. One: tell the whole school , which is only bad because it will, only in a matter of minutes, get to Archie.
And two: she would tell me to break his heart and cheat on him. And I don't wanna do that." I say.
"And I trust you won't tell him." I add. My timer rings and it was 7:00 and I need to get ready. I shot up.
"What's wrong Veronica?" She asks.
"Nothing, I just have to get ready for me and Archie's first date." I say.
"Oh, well I sincerely wish you luck. And try to figure out if you wanna be with him or not." She says. I nod and walk out and to my house.

8:00

I finally get to Pop's and I see Archie sitting there sipping his milkshake and on his phone. I walk over to him and slide into the booth chair in front of him.
"Hey" he says putting his phone down.
"Hi" I say.
"What's wrong Veronica?"
"Nothing."
"What's wrong?!" He asks firmly.
"I SAID NOTHING" I yell.
"THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG AND YOU WON'T TELL ME. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I SAID TO WAIT A WHILE TO GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER AND TRUST EACH OTHER. SO WE DON'T HAVE TO KEEP SECRETS LIKE THIS. SO WE CAN TELL EACH OTHER WHAT'S WRONG!" He whisper yells.
"Like what secrets. I don't recall any secrets that came up in the past few days." I say trying to calm down.
"Like the biggest secret of them all, you being a fuckgirl"
He says. That's what made me get to my boiling point.
"YEAH WELL, I WAS JUST USING YOU. YOU'RE UGLY AND NO ONE WOULD ACTUALLY WANT YOU. THIS IS THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN GET A GIRL, IS WHEN THEY USE YOU!" I whisper yell. He looks at me surprised that I just said that. I feel super sorry I didn't meant anything that I said, I was super mad and lies just poured out.
"Okay, thanks for that." I see him tearing up but I know he's not finished with his sentence. I have a gut feeling that the rest was gonna be something we'll both regret.
"But whatever we have here, using or not using, is done. No more Varchie. No more us." He starts tearing up even more and so do I. He stands up and starts to leave the diner. I also stand up running beside him to talk to him.

BOOM!

I didn't know what happened until I see it. I see Archie laying on the ground in a pool of blood, and with a gunshot wound in his chest. Archie got shot. I know we just had a fight but I ran by his side and held him. I put pressure on his wound. I see him holding me tightly. He didn't want me to leave his side. I didn't want to either and I wasn't going to.
" Ronnie, I'm sorry for everything." He says out of breath.
"Archiekins, it's okay. I'm sorry to." I say.
I notice he's loosening grip of me.
"ARCHIE!!."I yell desperately. And just in time the ambulance takes him away.

*next day*

I'm watching television at the hospital and I turn on the news.

Newsanchor: " Just in... last night at 8:30 Riverdale's new citizen, Archie Andrews was shot. We don't know by who or why. But we do know one thing. We asked Pop to look at the security camera and we saw that Archie Andrews and Veronica Lodge were having what looks like a argument, but it definitely wasn't Veronica who shot him because when the shot was fired it was aimed at Veronica, we're guessing that Archie saw it and jumped in front of her. So Archie took the bullet for Veronica. Whoever Veronica is, this clearly shows that he still cares about you."

I start crying again. He saved me.
"Oh Archie, why do you have to be a good guy all the time?" I ask myself. Then I slowly drift off into a deep slumber sitting on a chair. Waiting for Archie.

Author's note: omgomgomg. I know you guys may hate me for breaking up Archie and getting him shot. But you'll be even more mad of what I'm gonna do in the next chapter. I love you guys so much. Thanks for all the positive comments.
